Zakaryya Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 I now have an Apple Wireless N 300M fully functional in my Compaq Presario. I can now, with confidence, edit bios whitelist and flash bios. say goodbye to "104-Unsupported wireless network device detected. System Halted. Remove device and restart".Thanks to the entire osx86 community for any help and tips. If you need any help I am here for you. I intend writing a tutorial on how I done it. p.s. I can do this within windows at the moment, I'll experiment with an OSX method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Beltran Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 so, with that you can put any wireless card on a presario?? that would be great im so sick of this atheros 5007 i'll watching this !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zakaryya Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 Yes, any card, I guess. Well, if I can make a genuine apple card work then I assume it's possible. I have to polish my method and try to keep it simple. I'll try to include some screen shots also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thuan Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Hi Zakaryya, I want to say thank you for your help in modding my dv2000 bios (bios version f.39) to accept broadcom wifi card BCM94321. My laptop now shows Airport card and working without and modification. Even in vista, it shows as broadcom wireless n. Again, thank for your effort and time helping me, especially on long night at 4 am. I wish if you could spare some time to write instructions for others like me to get their HP laptops accept other wireless card. Thuan Le Yes, any card, I guess. Well, if I can make a genuine apple card work then I assume it's possible. I have to polish my method and try to keep it simple. I'll try to include some screen shots also.

Zakaryya Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 I was interesting for me. I got the chance to explore the possibilities. I've started on the tutorial, just want to make it as easy as possible to follow. It's quite a convoluted process. I'm pleased it worked well for you.

[/quote Good evening...!:-) I too am hoping to change the wireless card in my Hp pavilion dv7.1130el but I know that it is pretty difficult as it has the Insyde bios N°F26. If you can give me any tips i would be very grateful, so i will be keeping an eye open on this thread. Ciao! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zakaryya Posted March 28, 2009 Author Share Posted March 28, 2009 Hi All, So far I have tried what I know(which is limited) on my Compaq F.1F bios and on a HP F.39 bios both with success. I found the latter considerably more difficult due to variations in the layout of the whitelist in the bios rom, I needed two attempts at it and spent hours trying to figure it out. This makes writing a universal guide a bit harder. In the meantime,if you want me to help by providing a modified bios then you can PM with details of existing wireless card and the new card. The info I'll need is the VEN_ ,DEV_ and SUBSYS_ id's. and bios version. To enable you to obtain exact info on your new card this is how to avoid the 104 error... 1. Remove existing wireless card from laptop, leave the access cover off. 2. Boot laptop and enter boot selection screen. 3. Install new card (whilst laptop is running), no need connect antenna wires. 4. Boot into windows and new card will appear as unknown device. 5. Now you can obtain exact ven, dev & subsys id's from device properties If you aren't up to editing your own bios then I can do it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
